Description
Since 2017, the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid (WLCG) has been working towards enabling Token based authentication and authorisation throughout its entire middleware stack. Following the publication of the WLCGv1.0 Token Schema in 2019, middleware developers have been able to enhance their services to consume and validate OAuth2.0 tokens and process the authorization information they convey. This talk will present a status update of the WLCG Authorization Working Group and provide an overview of the token based authorization model. We will put the progress for WLCG in context with larger efforts by the Research and Education sector.
